Create the Retirement You’ve Always Imagined
Retiring comfortably involves more than just saving—it’s about ensuring a well-planned income strategy that sustains your lifestyle throughout retirement. Retirement planning has two key stages: first, saving enough to retire confidently, and second, positioning your assets to provide supplemental income that maintains your lifestyle and keeps pace with inflation. Our services offer a comprehensive approach designed to meet all your financial needs, helping to ensure confidence as you transition into and through retirement.
- Our advice
A comprehensive retirement strategy built around your unique goals and needs, focusing on:
Personalized Retirement Income Planning
We begin by assessing your financial situation and retirement goals, creating a personalized income plan designed to ensure a steady, reliable stream throughout retirement, tailored to meet your specific needs and aspirations.
Strategic Social Security Planning
Timing your Social Security benefits is critical. We analyze your financial situation and income needs to help determine the best time to claim benefits, maximizing your Social Security income and enhancing your retirement plan.
Pension Optimization
Choosing the right pension option is vital for long-term security. We guide you in selecting the most suitable plan—whether a lump-sum, single-life, or joint-and-survivor annuity—helping to ensure your pension aligns with your broader strategy.
Retirement Asset Consolidation
Consolidating your retirement assets simplifies management and optimizes your portfolio. We help you merge 401(k)s, IRAs, and other accounts, with the goal of reducing fees and ensuring tax efficiency, giving you a clear view of your financial picture.
Investment Advice for Immediate, Intermediate, and Long-Term Needs
We tailor investment advice to match your income needs at different stages of retirement. For immediate needs, we focus on conservative, income-generating investments; for intermediate needs, a balanced mix; and for long-term, growth-oriented investments to protect against inflation.
Tax-Efficient Withdrawal Strategies
Strategic withdrawals are key to minimizing taxes and maximizing income. We develop a plan for withdrawing from taxable accounts, traditional IRAs, and Roth IRAs, while managing RMDs to avoid penalties and maximize after-tax income.
Longevity and Inflation Protection
Protecting against longevity risk and inflation is crucial. We incorporate strategies such as inflation-protected securities, annuities, and diversified portfolios to help ensure your income maintains its purchasing power over time.
Health Care and Long-Term Care Planning
Healthcare expenses can be significant in retirement. We plan for these costs by helping you choose the right Medicare options, long-term care insurance, and setting aside savings to ensure healthcare doesn’t disrupt your retirement plans.
Estate Planning and Legacy Considerations
We integrate estate planning into your retirement strategy, aiming to ensure your assets are distributed according to your wishes in a tax-efficient manner. This includes wills, trusts, and charitable giving aligned with your values.
Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustments
Retirement planning is an ongoing process. We provide continuous support, adjusting your plan as circumstances change to help ensure your strategy remains aligned with your goals, giving you financial security throughout retirement.
